Kotofey (Котофей)

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 3 years

Kotofey was found on a vacant lot near Marina Reshetieva’s shelter. The kitten urgently needed help: he was severely dehydrated, had a large, open, purulent wound measuring about 5–6 cm on the posterior lateral side of his abdominal cavity, and also showed signs of feline herpesvirus infection. Currently, Kotofey is undergoing examinations and treatment at a veterinary clinic. He’s hospitalized and receiving intravenous fluids, and has already started the necessary medical treatment. According to preliminary estimates by the veterinarians, he’ll need another week to a week and a half of inpatient care to stabilize his condition and regain his strength. The estimated cost of treatment is 10,000 UAH. We’d be sincerely grateful for any assistance you can provide for Kotofey. Every contribution brings him one step closer to recovery and a chance at a new, happy life. ❤️🐾

Котофея було знайдено на пустирі неподалік притулку Марини Решетєєвої. Хлопчик потребував термінової допомоги: він був сильно зневоднений, мав велику відкриту гнійну рану розміром близько 5–6 см у задній боковій частині черевної порожнини, а також ознаки герпесвірусної інфекції котів. Наразі Котофей проходить обстеження та лікування у ветеринарній клініці. Він знаходиться на стаціонарі під крапельницями та вже розпочав необхідне лікування. За попередніми прогнозами лікарів, йому знадобиться ще близько 1–1,5 тижня стаціонарного догляду, щоб стабілізувати стан і набратися сил. Орієнтовна вартість лікування становить 10 000 грн. Будемо щиро вдячні за будь-яку допомогу для Котофея. Кожен внесок наближає його до одужання та шансу на нове щасливе життя. ❤️🐾

About Kotofey (Котофей)

What life with Kotofey (Котофей) looks like

Kotofey (Котофей) is a small young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Happy Paw Mykolaiv Oblast in Ukraine.

An adult cat usually shows their personality within a week. Give them a quiet room with everything they need (food, water, litter, hiding spot) and let them choose when to explore. Don't force interaction — every cat decides for themselves when a new home counts as home.

🇺🇦Adopting from Ukraine

The shelter typically completes the animal's vaccinations, microchipping, and pet passport before adoption. Specific fees and process details vary by shelter and country — confirm directly via the contact details in the sidebar.

Frequently asked

Adopting Kotofey (Котофей), answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Kotofey (Котофей)?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Happy Paw Mykolaiv Oblast handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Kotofey (Котофей) on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Kotofey (Котофей) if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Happy Paw Mykolaiv Oblast will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Kotofey (Котофей) already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most cats on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Kotofey (Котофей) isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Happy Paw Mykolaiv Oblast early rather than rehoming privately; they know Kotofey (Котофей) and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (UK). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
